The case is part of a troubling trend in Madhya Pradesh, where there have been several incidents of sudden cardiac arrests during physical activities. In October of the previous year, a 15-year-old boy died after suffering a heart attack while playing cricket in Agar-Malwa district. Additionally, a 73-year-old man passed away from a heart attack while dancing at a yoga event in Indore.
These incidents have raised alarms about the need for increased heart health awareness, especially among younger individuals, to help prevent such tragedies in the future.
